The Manor Guesthouse

We stayed at The Manor Guesthouse for 2 nights in Room no.3. Reception is at the back of the property via the large car park and attractive garden. Reception is not always staffed but you are given a telephone number for 24hr contact. Our room along with several others was in an extension to the main building and had the appearance of a motel. The room was quite basic with a double and a single (not needed) bed, dressing table, chair, mirror and bedside cabinet. Looking at the website the picture shows our room to be an economy double with one side of our bed up close to a radiator. We had paid £233 for the two nights and expected more. Added to this the broadband packed up and the TV stopped working. The mattress was uncomfortable as it was rather springy. Our room was not serviced although we made a point of coming out of our room to allow for this (you have to be out of your room between 11am and 1.30pm). Breakfast at Weatherspoons on the Saturday morning was fine but they only allow a £7 voucher which covers the smaller Full English and coffee. On the Sunday the breakfast in the guesthouse was excellent with hot and cold food available. An easy chair in the room would have been nice. In my opinion this is more a 3 star establishment than 4 star. We were disappointed but did not let it spoil our visit.

Breakfast wasn’t great. Bacon was rock hard, fried egg had been obviously sat there for a while as it was hard too

We really enjoyed our stay, a family of 3. Room was very clean and the breakfast was excellent

Bed is soft, might not suit everyone.

My mum and I had a wonderful stay at this gorgeous hotel. It’s set around a beautiful, tranquil courtyard garden with a Koi fishpond. The room was lovely, clean, fresh and quiet. The owner is adorable, friendly and couldn’t do enough to accommodate us including a last minute room change to a family room. I will definitely be staying here again. If I could give you 10*s, I would. Congratulations on a perfect hotel.

Excellent little hotel, the staff was amazing and the breakfast top notch! Room was well equipped and very clean. Pleasant experience all around.

Nice place

We stayed 2 nights in a 2nd floor room over looking the courtyard. The staff were all very welcoming & friendly. The breakfast had a good variety, nice and hot & cooked well which is not always the case for buffet style breakfasts. The location is good for the Peak District. Plenty of parking & although due to weather we were not able to enjoy it, the outside area was very pretty. The bathroom could benefit from a little work. Overall Good Location, welcome staff, excellent breakfast.

My sister and I had a lovely stay here. Loads of parking and a lovely gentleman who worked there helped us find our room. He was really helpful, recommended good places to eat and answered any questions we had. The room was clean and comfortable with beautiful gardens outside. Really enjoyed our stay, thank you for having us :)

Really nice place, girls who run it are lovely and nothing is too much. Best hotel breakfast I’ve ever had and they even played a separate meal for my vegan friend

the history of it being an old rectory ,convenient to shops etc , staff very amiable and obliging . for what we required it was a very pleasant stay .

Fantastic staff, made us feel so welcome, such a difference from the large 'chain' hotels. Breakfast was great, and the hotel was conveniently located for Alton Towers. Thoroughly recommended

We had a lovely stay. I booked here as it was only 5 miles from Alton Towers as we were there for 2 days and love 4.5hours away. Myself and my son were very pleased with the service and the room. Everything was so clean and tidy. The garden was beautiful and well kept. Breakfast was freshly cooked and we ordered the night before when checking in, very well organised and means they know how much to prepare each day. Continental breakfast had things you would normally expect - toasters, cerial, juice, fruit and cerial. Overall an amazing guesthouse. Myself and my 15 year old son loved our stay.

Great stay here! Really helpful and kind staff and can’t recommend this place enough! Great place to stay for Alton Towers - only about a 12 minute drive.

Comfortable B and B. Lovely owners, welcoming and attentive. Booked to stay again.

This is a very nice family run business. Everyone was very welcoming and went out of their way to look after us. It's a great location for visiting Alton Towers.

Stayed for two nights and it exceeded our expectations, all the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a good stay, after breakfast they gathered all the children together to go feed the fish and show them the babies, which our 3 thoroughly enjoyed. Extremely close to several places to eat and only 15min drive from Alton Towers. Would definitely come back again.

The staff were very welcoming and easy to get on with. The room was very clean with comfortable seating, and the bathroom was also very clean. Breakfast was excellent. Would go again.

Friendly welcome and nice simple check in. Preya was very friendly and helpful. Nice, clean and spacious family room. Lovely breakfast with plenty options. Would definitely recommend and will visit again. Ideal for people visiting alton towers.

Room was clean, hosts were very attentive and very happy to help. Would definitely stay again.
